I wrote this for real disaster scenarios. There you have other problems,
than searching for update problems.

But in a test environment you can play with a new version, of course. At
least you should not downgrade. And of course not upgrade to a pre
release like 4.2. But usually you never want unofficial version in
production. But your error looks like you had 4.2pre1 on your old
system? Is that right?

But you can syncronize the versions by self compiling or using the
Sernet packages.
